Have you tried the corner window tool?
Use it to place a window in one wall and it will automatically duplicate in the return wall.
Then you can edit them as separate windows (i.e. change width) and they will remain connected.

That is what I am asking, placed a corner window, using the corner window tool, and it shows as a window, no corner, the other window shows just like...no corner effect. Is there a special spot to touch when placin the corner window...do I touch the corner (inside or outside corner)....

You should be able to place the window anywhere on the wall with the reveal on the side that you want and it will snap automatically to the closet end.
